Capture — Photo a meal, scan a barcode, or type it in. Log symptoms when they happen. 2. Learn — See if a real pattern is forming from repeated observations. 3. What’s next — A clear next step: Safe, Test, Avoid, or keep gathering evidence. 4. Why — See the evidence behind each suggestion. Why people use it • Fast meal logging with photo, barcode, or text • Personal pattern learning with confidence levels • A Safe Foods list built from your own data • Private and offline — data stays on your device • Easy export for appointments What makes it different Most food diaries only store entries.
